The USSR vs. Islamo-facism

I think this comic does a good job pointing out that the Soviets were not always that rational/deterable etc, and also were a far greater threat than the current folk who are after us.
I read "The End of Faith" and "The Twilight of Atheism" recently. Both of them made me realize how frightening the USSR really was. TTOA says that 100,000,000 people were killed by the USSR. Sometimes we forget how atypical life in America is.

Ayman al-Zawahiri is no Monty Python, but one has to admit, if what he was talking about wasn't the killing of British soldiers, it would be a rather funny statement.
